Update:
My stereo system is undergoing a few changes right now. I have replaced my 2 Fosgate 500a2s with an MTX 81000d monoblock Class D amp. It pushes 1000 watt RMS at 12 volt and 1500 watt RMS at 14 volt. I also added a digital 1 farad capacitor, and put one of the Fosgate 500a2s on my highs. I ended up blowing both of my Infinitys by sending too much wattage to them (oops!), so I am replacing the coaxials with a Diamond Audio M6 component set. I also replaced my Tacoma 60/40 split bench with a set of Civic buckets. I hope to have them tweeded here shortly.

Until I can get pictures up, here is the old setup.

--------------------------------------------
This page is all about my stereo. It isn't much, but it sounds good and hits hard in a little truck. I don't have pictures of anything other than the subs right now, but here is a layout of everything.

This is the buildup of my subwoofer box.
The box houses 4 Pioneer dual voice coil ten inch subs. They are powered by 2 Fosgate 500a2 amps. The box is made of 1/2 inch mdf and covered in black and white checkered tweed. The cover panels are covered in full black tweed.

This is the box being test fitted to make sure it even sits in the truck. The box was made by a friend for his frontier which is slightly wider than my Tacoma.

We are making templates to build the cover pieces for the box. Just regular old poster board from Wal-Mart.

This is the wiring almost complete. It's not the best wiring job in the world but it is better than having the wires bundled up under the carpet like it used to be.

The box is covered in tweed and the amps are test fitted.

The box 90% complete. The cover pieces are made and covered in black tweed. The amps have been painted a high heat aluminum color. Plexiglass was also installed in this picture.

All four tens installed and POUNDING. I had it metered at a local audio shop with an Audiocontrol meter and I got a 143.3 Db on the dash...
